The Speedhunters got some footage of Formula DRIFT driver, Ken Gushi, testing out the drifting abilities of the Scion FR-S for the first time. So even though the vid has made it's way through the Internet a couple weeks earlier, a word is a word and here's a glimpse of what the Toyobaru can do...on a wet track.

The Scion FR-S Concept is suppose to be the descendant of the famed Toyota AE-86 known to devoted fans as "the little car that could". The AE-86 was a light and agile car that gained fame due to the Japanese Anime series "Inital D". It was first believed that the FR-S was going to maintain the Toyota logo but it looks like it's going to carry the Scion badge instead. I don't know about you, but I can't wait to see this car drifting, and when it does, IMPORTJUNKIEZ.com will be sure to post it! Enjoy the video.

This time coming from the Japanese magazine, Best Car. The "AE86" is slated for a Winter 2008 debut. Boasting a 120hp engine and under 2200lb weight, this car is set to be an affordable lightweight compact RWD car - the likes of what we haven't seen since the Miata debuted. Interesting note from the article is that the car would sport a RWD system from Heavy Fuji Industries a.k.a. Subaru. Anyone else see the Scion Fuse in the sketch? Hmmmm, I think I'll believe this when I see the car in showrooms. It's only a year away...

AE-86 Return?
